Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 4922238, member: 173"] I was in Florida last week, and at the hotel pool ended up in a college football discussion with Florida State, Georgia, LSU, and Tennessee fans (pre-Orange Bowl). When I said I was a Syracuse fan, one guy commented about the bowl blowout and said "that's the problem now with all these opt outs". Nobody in 95% of the country follows closely enough to have anything remotely informed about Syracuse, and with all the opt outs in other games most just assumed that was an issue and cause of our game result. Nationally, people took less from that bowl game than we did - which is kind of impressive since as Syracuse fans we wrote that off as irrelevant roughly 27.2 seconds after the game had ended.
